tee'teller circumstance that 116 - Aocumems were to be • emed on the table relative to 'the subjeCt of which it tae-e( 0, namely, a Geier en levy. Though there eeere.:no official documents to shew by what aUtho-, t ity Co: French' undertook to raise men in Germany, ceritriti 1t was, and lie could prove kit, that be had ecicriting , parties to that Country. It, eherefore, * en official authority for•doieg so could be sliew e , and it coulcl, be prov 4 that he Attually didiltis, then it wildeae (Hit tin the apt hority e(Mrs., Clarke alone,, or` of the Duke of York through her, as reeled in•this letter. Ty this it was seen that Mrs. Clarke examined proposals fur raising one thousand met; in ,Germany, and made •a report thereon to del Duke of Y.Orki -aeling, in this instance, in the OA-. pacity, of Toms auder ite . Chieflereilf, It was also dear that she had (lotto se horn this. circumstance, that she desired Standen to wait Uyou the Duke of York to talk over these very alterations. She repree sent, hers:00841801'g suggested them to him, which she would not have done uttless.she had really held such a Conversation. The next letter ) (No. 15), stated that the Duke of York was " very angry with you (Sanden), for s'vlien he last sew you, you pro mised him 300 foreigners, and you have not pre (laced one. (),yes,, Mr. Sanders is a -ptetty fellow to depend on." This was a positive, proof that the Gerinao recruiting was Tarried on with the know ledge of the Duke of York. It was Ohio a pr oo f o f Clarke's knowledge of the proposals Made by. Sainlen to'the Commander in chiet which ehe must have been Made' acquainted with by his Royal H i'gh l*tS; After these letters, in addition to the evi deem ljeerd at the Bar, there could be no doubt on the mind of any One that Mrs. Clarke possessed in iluence over they .Commander in Chief, and used: it on this occasion. The next point to lreexemined was } whether : the Commatider in Chief , knew Mrs Clarke';; receiving pecuniary consideration for, the use ot her influence. Mrs. Clarke asserts that she tici;d him, hut he would suppose that such was not the ea,;‘,. For. it long time applications without end were made ; and he would ask, was it possible for his Royal. Highness to assign any other other rea son for her: continued exertion and ititerierence, but that she receives; a pecuniary reward for her labours, le would have asked her why she interested herself *) much tor Colonel French'e levy., end what were her motives tor wishing so earnestly to procure all the alterations required. What answer could she have given to such interrogations but tb.i true one, that sire received minty for. her Influiince... It she said it was her friendship fot• the parties that induced her thus warmly to espouse their cause, such a. de- Claration would net , have been vary satisfaetory to the Duke of York. Frosts this he inferred, that his Royal Highness must have made such an inquiry, sod would have been satisfieJ with i,o •anSwer but OW true One, that a beneficial coneideratien . was paid to Mrs. Clarke for he'r 'services. Motley was tent to her for this transaokion at all limes without Concealment or reserve, and nut at all as it would have been, had Mrs:choke been afraid of its corn ing tp the knowledge of the Duke of York. It also eppeared SiOrie the evidence of Mrs. Clarke and Mr. Riwler, that a lean of 50001. was negotiated for hie Royal nighties& himself, which had not much - the appearance of a wish to conceal these things from Another peiot which evinced the Duke of York's knowledge of this traffic was, that the erg. pent:lnure of the eeitablishrneuts at Gloucester-place and Weybridge, exceeded the neele of.supplyeee e This was to be attended to in ee cry part of the question. Miss Taylor's evidence was . also so natural and conclusive, that if: it slid not carry cooyiaion with it, be woad 'be ready:to give up his ceese French, worrietime contumally about the leyy business, and is alway . s waming, Sotnething blouse in hiS own faveur- e flow does he behave to _ton, darling'" , Whici4 ,Miss Clarice answers, ' 4 " Middling; not ' fiery well ;" and his !tool WO. , ness'rejOins, reMelter 'l . ericb must mind what he is about, or ' ' l shall cut hp him anti his levy too," Even if tuisuppurt4by ony other proof, he would think upon this testimony:alone the Point:int4introvertible.: Put ~th'ere Were oilier strongly cerroborating stanci, \‘. hich werild 'Of themielveS establish thiS ease. The payment of the service, of Time might be thought seiticieue for that ,Fetrpose. : Mrs.._Clarke itaidsbot of this, eed the Duke of York paid the re tunneler by his own bails.

Robinson's, "tOrttal' complaint against the whole of the temporary set-- jeattut of Colonel French's levy; as nehaVin; in a Manner infamous and 'disgraceful to the service, and, insteadof recruiting titivate levy, crimping to other Corps. When this was :seen at home, the Com mander in Chief stopped the levy, as not so pro. ductive as unlit have been expected. This was the first prbeeeding of the Coinniand,r in Chief towar4 men prateeted by his mistress. Wits there'a gentle. man who heard him, or a Military of4Cer acquainted with the service, who believed they would have been thus treated, unless they had.been under thiS protec titan ? Yet, on . anti April, they dared to insult the CorriMander in Chief with, another proposition to co the levy, under Certrint Moditicationa. They durst not have done so,' had they not known Who prote6ted them.. Colonel Gordon answers that the request could not be entnplied v ith. From these official documents, a convincing proof was offered to every dispassidnate man, that . an incalculable bur ,den ha d bean laid on the country ; add that for every guinea Mis.'Clarke received, the 'people paid eighty by this destrnctive system. After impartially weighing the whole of this evidence, it any mad could say that the Duke of York was not a party in ihese tratisaaions, no evidence on'earth was'capable. of convincing him. CAPTAIN TONYN. In this case. Mr. Donovan stated, that Captain Tonyn had agreed to pay 5001. for the majority, .anus that be afterwards wished to receive his deposit money back again.. Captain Sanders corroborated this, with the exception of a contradiction as to who mentioned thehnsitiess; and added, that tvlien Capt. l'onyn wished to withdraw the teetnoraedum for 40(A. he informed Mrs. Clarke, who said lie was a shabby fellow, and to get him to wait, for which purpose she gave him a note to shew Captain. To nyn, who was induced from that to wait fur several Gazettes. Mrs. Clarke confirmed these statements, and farmed, that she not only received the money, but informed his Royal Highness of the "same.—!. Col. Gordon, on. the other hand, sorted, t h at t he iransaelien• was periealy regular, end brought for ward the +Adel documents to prove it. The tea thnony.of Ponovan and Sauden, he conceived to be satisladory proof that money was offered ; that pro motion took place; and that the payment stipulated was . paid in consequence of that taking placce— With respect to the note, it was clear trout it what the Commander in Chief thought of the business, 4tud what share he took in it. He begged the House ,again to attend to Mrs. Clarke's detters Capt. San. den. • :Letter No. i i, mentions, that " the D. tells me it will be ,at least three weeks before •Tonyo can be-shade, hOwever the thing is done." Upon looking at the consequence, it. would be .seen, that all this proved true. - lirotu the tenor of the. letter 9, it appeared that Captain Tonyn had objeaed 'to the regiment to which he was attached, cud ahat the Duke of York had wished to stop his being wetted, hat was too late. The offiCial documents on 'Copt. Tonyo's appointment were indeed regular, but they had already.iteeo that Mrs. Clarke was. at= ways aware of the necessity, of having every t Wog fair in that quarter., Mrs. Clarke stated in evidence that she had informed his Royal Highness the Duke of York of the eppliCation,. &c... and the Atuth of' this was strongly corroborated by Capt. Saiiden's tea timony, which ptoved ihat oh the Saturday or Tues day utter the Wednesday on which he showed the note to Capt. Tw i n, e was. gaeeited. A 441 'this new., no doubt remained on MI mind that it was written by. time Commander in Chief. It was, ad dressed to George Varquhar," . and to prove to Captain Tonyn, that,it was written by the Duke of . York to Mrs. Clarke. Capt. &union carried with him another similar address to be shew n to that Gen tleman. It had been strongly urged that thiiletter wits a forgery; but be wished to observe, that if Mrs. Clarke had forged it, it would have been as easy for her -to .put the address. of " Mrs. Clarke", upon it as that of tieing° learquhar. Why should she nut rather do su), than adopt the private address,' only known to. herself - and the Duke of York ? theteby imposing upon herself the trouble of . .conviocieg .Captain Tony°, a person who knew nothing , of - those concealed addresses, by sliming covers treat other letters, that this VMS a legitimate . note from his Royal Highness to' her. Where was the sense of all this niystery, since, if she bad pat "Mrs. Clarke" upori it, Captain Tonyn would, have seen at once it was to her, and there would - have been eo troubie in the matter. There was apother point to which` be wished to direst the attention of the House. Every person who had attended to. Captain Saudeo'S tiVidence, must have been convinced that he was hostile tol.Vardz Ms. Clarke ; would lie not the n have taken-advantage of his knowledge of this for ? ' gery r and,: by exposing the whOie t ransaetion, over.; thrown that withati? Ha had out darts iv, and this , . opPters - tea Upon his had ttposttive conviCion that the ti_ote was net forged. It was thus proven, that Mrs. Clarke had not only the ridwer of granting, but of stopping promotions ; and it was also demotistrated ihat Iris Royal Highhess the'Ctinitnanderiii.Cl , ief Was. a knowing party , in , this affair, as it was itn possible for Mrs. Clarke to 'retard the gazetting of 4tain.Tonym but through his-means and intern feroce: • ten AV's' .A.PPOINrNiENT. The Hon. Member then adverted to the take of Colonel Shaw; 'who; front , the evidence. deliiired at the Bar, it appeared had• . ,agreed, to give Mrs. Clarke Wool. - for his yUiritment, half which sum • She aCtually'recelied 'at WO' different payments, but failing to pay tlic remainder,' through, her influence tie was placedd - on half-pay: This 144 was clearly stated. by Mrs. Clatite, and het- ei , iclenee Was id sbnioinealUteCorrobbrated by:that Of Mr. C. Sinew. He next brought forward the correspendence-be , tweets Genets': Burrard and Colonel Gordon, relating to Colonel ShaW, from which k appeared that, all the interest of General . Burrard, : cimitbilled with Colonel Shaw's knowledge, was insufficient lo pro; cure him a promotion °I - exchange.. But from a letter of a subsequent date, wherein he says, that he gvt434 fully accepts i the situation of DetAity Barrack Maatett (.I. , lteral, it , appeared stiamhingliad been done for him, though he was still to re!mnin an half-pay. Now after the - little dispos;tion 'shown by his. Royal lii h nets try servettol. Shaw, he. could not bring. hint.; self to think it by any meanstrobable that Col. Shaw should be appointed Depwyßarrack Master, unless , that intluente whichhad beers exerted in behalf of Dr. O'Mara, on Got. Claveking, was' likewise made Use of in this capte. There wash One snore part of Colonel Shaw's case which, he ivishl.id• to point out to the attention of the House„ 'Lundy; 'that Colonel Shaw thought himself an injured man ap , pointed to the Staff abroad (ill The. Hon . here read a long ‘letter trent' Colonel Shaw, dated off the land, May • 17, 18t)U,'corn- . ; plaining of • the severe hardships to whkh h 4 was exposed through being on half-pay. After sortie spprupriate continents on ,the distresses of Colonel • Shaw, in conserpience of not paying Mrs. Clarke the remainder , af •the I 0001. - the Hotta • Member skated, that ha+ling now gone through the greater part . of the evidence of which he . intended' to speak, he would trouble the House with a very IZ:w remarks more; he could not,. however, pass. over the case of Mr. Dowler, who was appointed to the charge of the account department of . the -Cottubissarist at Lisbon, for which he' paid Mrs. Clarke the sum of l 0001._ Ho 'had never made any applica tion but to her, • and hadbeen informed by her that he was nominated,' but that his appointment . was necessarily•Aeloved till Mr. Manby's brataken and that the Du Ice of York had spoken' to -.Mr. C. Long on the subjea. The whole of 'this statement had. been corroborated in the fullest manner by Mrs: Clarke. This he thought a strong proof that the Duke of York could not be ignorant of such crania& lions, as unless Mrs.• Clarke 'bad really had a coin, munication with him on-Ahe subject, she could ,not possibly have 6een inforthe'd of the interviews which his Royal Highness, it appears, ha, with Mr. Charles Long. This statement, as far as: Mr. Maltby 'wits concerned, had been strengthened by the evidracts, Of Mr. Lang, who unites' that he,. remetntsers the" Conitcraiuter is Chief otTtierved.,ll'e pegbt- to he pro - vided fur: Front these eireuttow.sueeq, it appeared . ti hlmimost clear and obvious, that Mr. Duwler gain! • ed an appeiatment in the .C°lntuissariat from his Royal HighneAt the Duke t)t York, 'throiigh the.iti lluetice"Ol Mrs. Clarke; and through het infitwnca only. - .„ „ . ;ANft7Ei. J' • The' next CaseheWoiaid advert to was that of,lae nua Carter, who was Mrs. taarke s 'low- boy; appeared that he had been in her service a year, that ibrough.her inflitencewnli the Counnander in Chief h 1 had procured hi cotittni3iion ; that he went trorn ber'service immediately to the army.

Nodonbt, he thought, could be enter : tained of Mrs. Clarke's having exerted her influence over the Commander in chief in behalf of her foot ' bey,. and it' her inflUentie extended so far as to cow pass such a point, be tbougln it difficult to iiay‘ . botv • - tar it might extend; for, as ho had already proved, • Duke of York Must have knM.vn Samuel Carter had betved Mts.

He would next speak a few words on the case:of Major Turner; 'who wished to retire, and still retain his rank, but was not permitted so to do, in conse-' 'qqence of a lager received by , his Royal Highness from Mrs. Soth e rland, complaining of . bis deport ment ,towards a lady.
